Tang Song and the two came back in less than two hours. His expression could not be described as joyful, but it could not be considered dignified either.
"Two pieces of news," Lin Ruan said, "one good and one bad, which one do you want to hear first?"
Everyone gathered around the table, Shen Shi'an said: "It's bad."
"The bad news is that we have not been able to get in direct contact with our superiors, and the communication has been blocked, no matter how many times we broadcast it, it is empty."
"Okay?"
"The good news is that the person in charge of the garrison here is indeed a person we know and owes the teacher a favor. His surname is Yang, and his name is Yang Mingwu. The other party still remembers the favor and gave us full support on the communication issue. Was able to leave an encrypted message to a superior contact via another line."
"Encrypted information?" Xiong Manshan asked, "Equivalent to encrypted text messages?"
"It can be understood in this way."
"That means there is no way to determine whether the other party has seen the message?"
"Yes, under the current situation, we can only wait to see if the contact person will reply, or send a plane directly."
Because they had prepared in advance that things might not go well, these two news were not difficult for everyone to accept.
"Follow the original plan," Shen Shi'an said, "We'll only wait here for two days. After two days, if we neither receive a reply nor wait for the plane, we will implement a backup plan."
Although it is necessary to go deep into the hinterland of the zombies to go to the air force base, comprehensive comparison is already the most convenient and fast method.
Everyone has no objection.
The information has been sent out, and the rest of the time is free. Several people walked around the places where they could go in the base a few times, not only to collect information, but also because they have not been in contact with large-scale crowds for too long. They walked around the road I miss the days when I could see my compatriots.
Tang Song said that the law of "the more zombies gather, the faster they evolve" is also applicable to supernatural beings. This theory was quickly verified by Liu Fangzhou - on the afternoon of the third day when everyone entered the base, he hadn't happened to him for several months. After changing the ability sensing distance, it finally broke through from the farthest two kilometers to the farthest three kilometers. If the ability is diverged in a circle centered on himself, he can sense all the living conditions within a radius of 1.5 kilometers at most. .
Although Chen Nan and the others did not break through just because they were on the verge of a critical point like him, they could all feel subtle changes in their bodies, "It's like absorbing one or two more zombie crystal nuclei every day." It is foreseeable that if they gather There are more people with supernatural powers, and what a considerable improvement effect it will produce over time.
On the other hand, the messages sent by the two of Tang Song were as if they were lost in the sea, neither received a reply, nor did a plane come to meet them.
On the night of the third day after entering the Yangcheng base, Shen Shi'an and others officially launched a backup plan, planning the next advance route in detail around the map.
Two hours later, Shen Shi'an put down his pen and put away all the maps and densely packed notebooks, "Everyone, go to bed early, and start tomorrow morning as soon as the city gate opens."
Because the plan was sufficient and detailed, the team members were full of confidence. Chen Nan touched his head in the backpack and couldn't help sighing: "We will really be able to reach the capital in two or three days at most. This is almost the same as It's like a dream."
Xiong Manshan sat on the chair and stretched, and said casually, "As long as nothing happens tonight."
Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and Liu Fangzhou jumped over and covered his mouth: "Brother! What are you doing! You have to de-buff your own personnel at this juncture! Spit! Spit and repeat!"
Xiong Manshan was so strangled that he almost rolled his eyes, spat out a couple of times involuntarily, and secretly cursed in his heart: I was just a bit messed up when I was looking for supplies, and it wasn't a crow's mouth that had been opened.
As for
Really fucking as.
This was the first sentence that came to mind after Xiong Manshan was woken up by the sharp and loud siren at around twelve o'clock that night.
Everyone put on their clothes and took their weapons as quickly as possible, opened the gate and walked onto the street.
Amidst the sound of sirens resounding throughout the city, the street lamps on both sides of the road were all lit up, attracting all kinds of bugs to fly up and down, and the cold white light cast circles of light and shadow on the road surface, and the place illuminated was as bright as day , the place that cannot be illuminated is immersed in the deep night, and it becomes darker and harder to distinguish.
Shen Shi'an and the others reacted quickly. When they rushed out of the gate, there was no one on the street, but soon afterward, survivors ran out of various buildings one after another, with weapons in their hands. There was not much panic during the operation, and they ran towards the north gate in the direction of the siren:
"Are there zombies around?"
"Didn't I just surround it once last month? Why did it come again? I also heard that there have been fewer zombies outside recently."
"Who knows what's going on, after all, the city wall is so high, no matter how many people come, I won't be afraid."
"I happened to save a batch of crystal nuclei. My daughter's birthday is coming soon. I plan to buy her a small dress..."
The North City Gate was not far from the place where Shen Shi'an and the others lived. After following the flow of people for less than two minutes, the majestic and thick city wall was right in front of them. Rows of heavily armed soldiers ran over from the main road, methodically divided into two parts, climbed up the city wall one by one from the steps on both sides of the city gate, and the sound of uniform footsteps was especially reassuring in the night.
One of the leading commanders recognized Tang and Song, saluted, disappeared on the city wall, and quickly ran back: "Major Tang, Commander Yang is here to invite you."
"Can my friends go up too?"
"certainly."
Shen Shi'an hugged the child at the end of the team, followed the commander's lead, passed through rows of soldiers and supernatural beings, and soon came to the main city wall directly above the city gate.
A middle-aged man who was surrounded by the crowd turned around and shook hands with Tang Song: "Major Tang was also woken up?" Then he pointed to the man beside him and introduced: "This is the person in charge of the base. Mr. Zhu Guangzhu of the affairs of the people."
"Captain Yang, Mr. Zhu, these are my friends." Tang Song also gave a brief introduction, "Is there a zombie coming towards the base?"
Head Yang first set his sights on Xiong Manshan, who looked like the most frightening iron tower, and replied: "Yes, the vicinity of Yangcheng is a city with a relatively large population density, and there are many zombies. There will be a wave of zombies. But don't worry, our city walls have been reinforced many times, and they are very safe. Zombies can't break in, but it takes a little work to clean them up. You originally planned to leave tomorrow, right? Maybe it will be delayed for a while. "
The leader of the supernatural being named Zhu Guang focused on looking at Shen Shian, who was at the end of the team, several times, "The child in your arms is also a supernatural being?"
Shen Shi'an nodded, patted the child on the back a few times, turned sideways and did not speak. Because he got up in a hurry, he didn't have time to camouflage on his face, the delicate jaw line was smooth and clear, reflecting the pearly white soft light in the night.
"Captain Yang," Tang Song changed the subject again: "If you don't mind my asking, how did you know that there are zombies around?"
The lights on the city gate were extremely bright, illuminating every detail within hundreds of meters outside the city wall. It was as normal as during the day, and no zombies were found within Liu Fangzhou's sensing range.
Head Yang took a handheld computer from the soldier and handed it to Tang Song: "In order to detect the movement of the zombies in time, we have installed cameras in four directions five kilometers away from the base to monitor in real time 24 hours a day. This is the image coming back from the camera."
Liu Fangzhou leaned over and took a look. The computer screen was densely packed with zombies, with rotting flesh and bones, and the cloudy eyeballs were full of lifelessness. It looked especially eerie and weird in the dark gray picture of the infrared camera.
"Can you determine the exact number of zombies?" Lin Ruan asked.
Head Yang shook his head: "The range that the camera can capture is limited, and the exact number will not be known until the zombies get closer. Regardless of the previous zombie waves, the number of zombies has never exceeded 100,000."
When the few people were exchanging information, another person climbed the city wall and came over. It was Zhong Han, the person in charge of the Hall of Death who had met everyone.
Zhong Han seemed a little surprised when he saw Shen Shi'an and the others: "Are you here too?"
Zhu Guang asked: "Master Zhong knows these friends?"
"I happened to meet on the way back to the base the day before yesterday, and we came back together along the way," Zhong Han said hello to a few people with a smile, and then said to Yang Mingwu: "Teacher Yang, the people from the Xiangsheng Hall are ready below." I am ready to be dispatched at any time."
Head Yang stretched out his hand, with an extremely friendly attitude: "Master Zhong has worked hard."
"Where did Commander Yang say that? It is the responsibility and obligation of each of us to jointly resist zombies and maintain the safety of the base."
The zombies were several miles away, and the base had already been prepared. Liu Fangzhou glanced at the soldiers and supernatural beings who were waiting in formation on the city wall, and then at everyone inside the city wall holding weapons, standing neatly and waiting for them at any time. The base residents who gave the order suddenly felt a reliable sense of security.
It's just that this sense of security has not been born for a long time, and suddenly he raised his hand to cover his head, his face turned pale, and he was about to fall down, "Ah!"
Chen Nan was startled, and quickly supported him: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Liu Fangzhou looked distressed: "The zombies are approaching..."
Head Yang stretched out his hand, with an extremely friendly attitude: "Master Zhong has worked hard."
"Where did Commander Yang say that? It is the responsibility and obligation of each of us to jointly resist zombies and maintain the safety of the base."
The zombies were several miles away, and the base had already been prepared.
